And so if this is indeed something people experience we need to fix it now. Thanks, Melchior On Thu, Oct 17, 2019 at 4:10 PM Amanda Gowland <agowland@ripe.net> wrote:

Indeed. I am clueless since I haven't seen a single incident message among the various mailing lists. I would expect that RIPE should name and shame those harassing people at meetings. I am truly speechless that this goes on in 2019. I, too, am speechless.

Perhaps you are not the one being harassed and the folks who are haven't told you about their experiences.

Dear all,
I've been observing various efforts towards constructing a safe and inclusive environment both at RIPE meetings and our online platforms. I have not been to as many meetings as you but I have never seen any incident, even in the slightest, where the people attending were acting inappropriately in any sort of way. I consider RIPE meetings extremely safe and inclusive, so just paint me clueless as to what the issue is.
Regards, Hank
I appreciate these efforts, however, I have some concerns with the process and our ability to execute.
A careful observer may see that the next generation of Internet engineers is not quite like the current establishment. I believe this diversity needs to be acknowledged in our policies. We owe it to them to create an environment that contributes to their comfort and well being.
I recorded some thoughts on my way to RIPE - https://youtu.be/6_dLgcfv8kU
